About the Fellowship
The Emerging Musicians Fellowship programme aims to support a diverse
range of outstanding orchestral musicians at the beginning of their careers.
The programme began in Autumn 2021, and we will be welcoming
applications for the Year 3 Cohort in the 2023/24 Season.
The Emerging Musicians Fellowship programme aims to help address some
of the significant challenges faced by early-career orchestral musicians. The
programme removes barriers to employment and empowers individuals to
realise their full artistic talent and potential.
Each year we welcome a cohort of Fellowship Musicians on a yearlong
placement with Liverpool Philharmonic. We pair each Fellowship Musician
with a mentor and provide them with instrument lessons from members of the
Orchestra. These placements are an immersive, paid opportunity. Each
Fellowship Musician is involved in every aspect of professional orchestral life
including rehearsals, performances with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic
Orchestra, work with our Youth Company, and engagement across our
pioneering Learning Programmes through In Harmony Liverpool and our
Music and Health Programmes.
